It’s important to start taking care of your children’s teeth and encouraging them to do the same from an early age. We’re here to help you make sure your children are getting the oral healthcare they need and to get them used to visiting the dentist here at Hatfield Dental Care.

We’ve assembled this list of FAQs to help you learn more about the best ways to help prepare your children for a life of good oral health and hygiene.

When should I start brushing my child’s teeth?

You should start brushing your child’s teeth as soon as the first milk tooth appears. Brush twice daily for two minutes with a smear of fluoride toothpaste.

When should I first bring my child to the dentist?

We recommend a visit to the dentist when your child’s first tooth appears or by their first birthday – whichever happens first.

These early visits to the dentist are important because they’ll help ensure that your child’s oral health is in good order. They can also help prevent the development of a dental phobia or anxiety around visiting the dentist.

What can I do to best help my children’s oral health and hygiene?

The best thing you can do is to promote a positive attitude and set a good example when it comes to taking care of your teeth and oral health. Try to make visits to the dentist as positive an experience as possible and be sure to supervise your children when they’re brushing their teeth.
